Journey to the soul - beneath the surface December 1991

6/14/2015

 
On this journey letting go of control
guide me, guide me so I know . . .
Passage through the darkness to be whole
illuminating hidden shadows I disown
Whimpering voices demanding to be heard
denied for so long . . . orphaned in this world
Conditioned in survival – severed from the whole
On this journey letting go of control . . .
guide me, guide me so I know . . .

Beyond the Illusion . . . beneath the surface so much more
embracing the duality . . .
surrendering to my soul . . .
guide me, guide me so I know . . .

Wendysong   Amy Hindman   July 1998

Gentle friend, I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .

if you get there before I do

try to remember what we’ve been through

please touch me now and then with tender loving care

for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

Chorus:  I know when loved ones die . . . no one ever leaves

but our bodies are a treasure we receive

and the language of love through your body flow

lifts me when I’m feelin’ low

your loving touch releases me to flow

You’ve seen my pain, and I’ve seen plenty of yours

we’ve shed our tears as loved ones come and go

we’ve cried and laughed and sighed

at times we wanted to die

sometimes we with eagles soared . . .

and other times wondered why we signed up for the course

Chorus

Gentle friend I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .

if you get there before I do

try to remember what we’ve been through

please touch me now and then with tender loving care

for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . .

THE GIFT~FOR KARLEEN  MARCH 1990  WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me
the courage to grieve
as you led me through forgotten memory

Chorus:  Guiding my hand
facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
the love laid down and died . . .
withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
such a crime . . .
Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be

She never said goodbye
the children didn’t ask why
but when in bed alone they’d cry
prayin’ that she wouldn’t have to die

Chorus: Guiding my hand
facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
the love laid down and died . . .
withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
such a crime . . .
Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be

I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve give me
the power to be free
by listenin’ to the wounded child in me
being my friend, knowing on you I can depend
the rage no more denied
suppressed feelings now brought into the light
creating a space open wide
where sleeping dreams no longer hide
thank God I’m alive . . .

I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me

And now I know it’s time to let go . . .

the dying moon mirrors the dance my body knows . . .

the shedding of the old reflects the pain within my soul

healing passage through the dark will lead me home . . .

healing passage through the dark to be reborn . . .

and the mystery cycle begins anew . . .

Chorus:  New moon . . . the light will return real soon . . .

New moon . . . sometimes inspires a tune . . .

Magic moon . . . mysterious rune . . . 

Guru moon . . . please guide me to my shadow

through the darkness where the Goddess lies in slumber deep . . .

awaken her dormant power in me . . .

Chorus

Magic moon . . . mysterious rune

magic moon . . .

magic moon . . .

DEEP THERAPY          MARCH 1989        WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

First day of spring
wish I knew what I was feeling
my mind needs clearing

Chorus:  Like a closet filled with webs of darkness
ghosts fade in and out of focus
pain and fear locked somewhere in my mind
the child remembers it somehow
please trust my journey through you now
together we’ll expose the lurking shadows
and tenderly our love will light the way

Somehow I just need to sing
take the time to be listening
the wound keeps bleeding patiently
revealing unknown mystery . . .
searchin’ for the key . . . inside of me . . . .

Memories buried long ago
photographs refuse to share the story
there was no glory when you let go
left alone you took the map 
and no one else could fill the gap
and all that rage I turned it in on me
and now I just want to be free

First day of spring
wish I knew what I was feeling . . .

PRAYER FOR MY CHILD     JULY 1988    WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

July 1988

My brave little one . . . your pain is almost done . . .
soon you will be dancing in the sun . . .
the journey you are moving through
becoming the love that was given you
letting the pain overflow . . .
discovering what you didn’t know
freeing your life from the shadow
melting into the beauty of the rainbow

Chorus:  You know that I can feel your pain
wounded child cryin’ in the rain
though I’ve been gone for all these years
I have always dried your tears
for I am always near – feeling all your fear
just call on me, my little one . . . I am here

My youngest little prize, “bonus baby” of five
you’ve walked through the storm with your head up high
remembering the words to our lullaby
so go ahead and let yourself cry
I’m so sorry I never said goodbye
leaving my Amy, my little child -
wondering why?


Chorus: You know that I can feel your pain
wounded child cryin’ in the rain
though I’ve been gone for all these years
I have always dried your tears
for I am always near – feeling all your fear
just call on me, my little one . . . I am here

My sweet child, I can still feel you smile
your serenade of love still touches me
soothing like a rhapsody
listen carefully for my reply
I come to you through dream and lullaby

“When at night I go to sleep – fourteen angels watch do keep” *

My brave little one, your pain is almost done
soon you will be shining like the sun
living in the light we are one

* from Humperdinck’s “Prayer from Hansel and Gretel”

I remember when you told me “Don’t name your kids after me”
but that would leave a great big hole in the family tree
it’s really not such an atrocious name . . .
when I remember your soft gentle face
My mother is who you are . . . 
and “Bertha Wilhelmina” is pearls covered with lace

Chorus: And you’re still so much a part of me
it’s from you I got my identity
though you weren’t there to show me how to be
I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

Don’t ya wish somehow
we could’ve altered that untimely fate
seems amazin’ that my heart didn’t just fill up with hate
losin’ you so long ago – it still wounds me so . . .
now I’m just lettin’ it bleed . . .
healin’ with the help of your love the wounded child in me 

Chorus: 
And you’re still so much a part of me
it’s from you I got my identity
though you weren’t there to show me how to be
I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

I never knew I looked so like you
you left me as a little girl
became a woman I wish you knew
photographs of you yesterday – I resemble today
the essence of your beauty will sparkle within me always    

Chorus: 
And you’re still so much a part of me
it’s from you I got my identity
though you weren’t there to show me how to be
I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

 Summer 1980

Restless times for love & wishin’ I could sleep beside a man  that’s not like all the others
not just casual intimacy

Chorus: Strangers in a strange land indeed
who are you who is me
and why can’t we come together
we’re fillin’ a void that only gets wider
acting as if we both really care
yet still I’m sittin’ here today
watchin’ the sun play on the bay

Alone at home just a pen and my thoughts
high tide singin’ strong
fire’s cracklin’, lanterns low – wish I had a beau
just someone to share with – just to be there with
to hold me when I’m low

Moonset Skagit Bay
sparklin’ golden to the Milky Way
think I’m gonna delay my stay
til the clouds disappear it away

Red houseboat circles around
rockin’ to the beat of the sound
Whidbey lights come a flickerin’ through
its windows like a haunting guru

Chorus: 


Soothing Puget Symphony
gently rockin’ me away to the sea
moonset sinkin’ through a clouded veil
intoxicating moonlight ale


Pairs of lovers greetin’ the sea
sharin’ in its mystery
rowboat dancin’ by the red houseboat
lovers makin’ moon a la float                Chorus

Mornin’ comes rollin’ around
Rowboat lies still on the ground
Tide wanes out, ocean lullaby nil
but rockin’ with a harmony still              Chorus

Moonset Skagit Bay
Moonset Skagit Bay . . . moonset, moonset Skagit Bay
Moonset Skagit Bay

Healing waters . . . healing waters of the earth

Cleansing waters . . . cleansing waters of the earth

Stones of mystery here long ago before me . . .

earth history . . . speaks to me . . .

Sacred pool envelop me . . . womb of the earth replenishing 

let it be . . .

Welcome the mystery . . .

wisdom of the Mother Earth guiding me . . .

gathering strength . . . emerging free . . .

Sing of earth’s melody      joining in life’s harmony

Breitenbush River symphony . . . 

healing me . . .

healing me . . .

    On this journey letting go of control

    guide me, guide me so I know . . .

    Passage through the darkness to be whole

    illuminating hidden shadows I disown

    Whimpering voices demanding to be heard

    denied for so long . . . orphaned in this world

    Conditioned in survival – severed from the whole

    On this journey letting go of control . . .

    guide me, guide me so I know . . .

    Beyond the Illusion . . . beneath the surface so much more

    embracing the duality . . .

    surrendering to my soul . . .

    guide me, guide me so I know . . .

    Gentle friend, I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .

    if you get there before I do

    try to remember what we’ve been through

    please touch me now and then with tender loving care

    for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

    Chorus:  I know when loved ones die . . . no one ever leaves

    but our bodies are a treasure we receive

    and the language of love through your body flow

    lifts me when I’m feelin’ low

    your loving touch releases me to flow

    You’ve seen my pain, and I’ve seen plenty of yours

    we’ve shed our tears as loved ones come and go

    we’ve cried and laughed and sighed

    at times we wanted to die

    sometimes we with eagles soared . . .

    and other times wondered why we signed up for the course

    Chorus

    Gentle friend I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .

    if you get there before I do

    try to remember what we’ve been through

    please touch me now and then with tender loving care

    for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

    for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . .

    THE GIFT~FOR KARLEEN  MARCH 1990  WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

    I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me
    the courage to grieve
    as you led me through forgotten memory

    Chorus:  Guiding my hand
    facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
    the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
    the love laid down and died . . .
    withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
    such a crime . . .
    Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be

    She never said goodbye
    the children didn’t ask why
    but when in bed alone they’d cry
    prayin’ that she wouldn’t have to die

    Chorus: Guiding my hand
    facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
    the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
    the love laid down and died . . .
    withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
    such a crime . . .
    Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be

    I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve give me
    the power to be free
    by listenin’ to the wounded child in me
    being my friend, knowing on you I can depend
    the rage no more denied
    suppressed feelings now brought into the light
    creating a space open wide
    where sleeping dreams no longer hide
    thank God I’m alive . . .

    I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me

    And now I know it’s time to let go . . .

    the dying moon mirrors the dance my body knows . . .

    the shedding of the old reflects the pain within my soul

    healing passage through the dark will lead me home . . .

    healing passage through the dark to be reborn . . .

    and the mystery cycle begins anew . . .

    Chorus:  New moon . . . the light will return real soon . . .

    New moon . . . sometimes inspires a tune . . .

    Magic moon . . . mysterious rune . . . 

    Guru moon . . . please guide me to my shadow

    through the darkness where the Goddess lies in slumber deep . . .

    awaken her dormant power in me . . .

    Chorus

    Magic moon . . . mysterious rune

    magic moon . . .

    magic moon . . .

    DEEP THERAPY          MARCH 1989        WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

    0 Comments


     

    First day of spring
    wish I knew what I was feeling
    my mind needs clearing

    Chorus:  Like a closet filled with webs of darkness
    ghosts fade in and out of focus
    pain and fear locked somewhere in my mind
    the child remembers it somehow
    please trust my journey through you now
    together we’ll expose the lurking shadows
    and tenderly our love will light the way

    Somehow I just need to sing
    take the time to be listening
    the wound keeps bleeding patiently
    revealing unknown mystery . . .
    searchin’ for the key . . . inside of me . . . .

    Memories buried long ago
    photographs refuse to share the story
    there was no glory when you let go
    left alone you took the map 
    and no one else could fill the gap
    and all that rage I turned it in on me
    and now I just want to be free

    First day of spring
    wish I knew what I was feeling . . .

    PRAYER FOR MY CHILD     JULY 1988    WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

    July 1988

    My brave little one . . . your pain is almost done . . .
    soon you will be dancing in the sun . . .
    the journey you are moving through
    becoming the love that was given you
    letting the pain overflow . . .
    discovering what you didn’t know
    freeing your life from the shadow
    melting into the beauty of the rainbow

    Chorus:  You know that I can feel your pain
    wounded child cryin’ in the rain
    though I’ve been gone for all these years
    I have always dried your tears
    for I am always near – feeling all your fear
    just call on me, my little one . . . I am here

    My youngest little prize, “bonus baby” of five
    you’ve walked through the storm with your head up high
    remembering the words to our lullaby
    so go ahead and let yourself cry
    I’m so sorry I never said goodbye
    leaving my Amy, my little child -
    wondering why?


    Chorus: You know that I can feel your pain
    wounded child cryin’ in the rain
    though I’ve been gone for all these years
    I have always dried your tears
    for I am always near – feeling all your fear
    just call on me, my little one . . . I am here

    My sweet child, I can still feel you smile
    your serenade of love still touches me
    soothing like a rhapsody
    listen carefully for my reply
    I come to you through dream and lullaby

    “When at night I go to sleep – fourteen angels watch do keep” *

    My brave little one, your pain is almost done
    soon you will be shining like the sun
    living in the light we are one

    * from Humperdinck’s “Prayer from Hansel and Gretel”

    BERTHA WILHELMINA     JULY 1988        WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

    I remember when you told me “Don’t name your kids after me”
    but that would leave a great big hole in the family tree
    it’s really not such an atrocious name . . .
    when I remember your soft gentle face
    My mother is who you are . . . 
    and “Bertha Wilhelmina” is pearls covered with lace

    Chorus: And you’re still so much a part of me
    it’s from you I got my identity
    though you weren’t there to show me how to be
    I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

    Don’t ya wish somehow
    we could’ve altered that untimely fate
    seems amazin’ that my heart didn’t just fill up with hate
    losin’ you so long ago – it still wounds me so . . .
    now I’m just lettin’ it bleed . . .
    healin’ with the help of your love the wounded child in me 

    Chorus: 
    And you’re still so much a part of me
    it’s from you I got my identity
    though you weren’t there to show me how to be
    I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

    I never knew I looked so like you
    you left me as a little girl
    became a woman I wish you knew
    photographs of you yesterday – I resemble today
    the essence of your beauty will sparkle within me always    

    Chorus: 
    And you’re still so much a part of me
    it’s from you I got my identity
    though you weren’t there to show me how to be
    I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

    I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

     Summer 1980

    Restless times for love & wishin’ I could sleep beside a man  that’s not like all the others
    not just casual intimacy

    Chorus: Strangers in a strange land indeed
    who are you who is me
    and why can’t we come together
    we’re fillin’ a void that only gets wider
    acting as if we both really care
    yet still I’m sittin’ here today
    watchin’ the sun play on the bay

    Alone at home just a pen and my thoughts
    high tide singin’ strong
    fire’s cracklin’, lanterns low – wish I had a beau
    just someone to share with – just to be there with
    to hold me when I’m low

     Summer 1980

    Moonset Skagit Bay
    sparklin’ golden to the Milky Way
    think I’m gonna delay my stay
    til the clouds disappear it away

    Red houseboat circles around
    rockin’ to the beat of the sound
    Whidbey lights come a flickerin’ through
    its windows like a haunting guru

    Chorus: 


    Soothing Puget Symphony
    gently rockin’ me away to the sea
    moonset sinkin’ through a clouded veil
    intoxicating moonlight ale


    Pairs of lovers greetin’ the sea
    sharin’ in its mystery
    rowboat dancin’ by the red houseboat
    lovers makin’ moon a la float                Chorus

    Mornin’ comes rollin’ around
    Rowboat lies still on the ground
    Tide wanes out, ocean lullaby nil
    but rockin’ with a harmony still              Chorus

    Moonset Skagit Bay
    Moonset Skagit Bay . . . moonset, moonset Skagit Bay
    Moonset Skagit Bay

    Healing waters . . . healing waters of the earth

    Cleansing waters . . . cleansing waters of the earth

    Stones of mystery here long ago before me . . .

    earth history . . . speaks to me . . .

    Sacred pool envelop me . . . womb of the earth replenishing 

    let it be . . .

    Welcome the mystery . . .

    wisdom of the Mother Earth guiding me . . .

    gathering strength . . . emerging free . . .

    Sing of earth’s melody      joining in life’s harmony

    Breitenbush River symphony . . . 

    healing me . . .

    healing me . . .
